It is a promontory that is one of the symbols of the city, from which you will enjoy a breathtaking view of the Golfo degli Angeli. Free lunch. In the early afternoon you will meet in the centre of Cagliari for an excursion to the archaeological site of Nora. The tour through the ruins will help you discover more about this city of Phoenician and Punic origin, visit its theatre and baths, and enjoy the splendid mosaics of its largest domus. On the way back to Cagliari you will take the scenic route along the Santa Gilla Lagoon and have the chance to admire pink flamingos. Free dinner and overnight stay on request.
